The Secret World offers free three-day trial

The Secret World wants you to join its conspiracy-raddled ranks. Try the MMORPG for free for three days, any time you like.

Rather than offer a free weekend, Funcom has decided to just grant new registrants three days to check out The Secret World at no cost, starting whenever they care to sign up. It’s a good chance for those who work or are otherwise busy on weekends to have a crack.

Interestingly, although the trial is nominally three days long, you can actually extend your sojourn; if you complete 30 missions, another two days will be added to your trial, and you’ll also net 1200 points for the in-game store – about $10 worth.

Moreover, if you make it all the way through to the end of the first dungeon, the Polaris, you’ll score the Whispering Demon Ring, which grants an XP bonus.
